Mike...I thought you had seen the light and given in to the pleasures of
YS...If you need rid of your Dingo I can give it a nice happy home next to
my 1.40Ls

I know this may sound like a smart a-- remark, 'but I'm still waiting for
the dreaded OS160 rear bearing failure.  I know it will probably happen when
I least want it to, but I've got about a hundred flights on 'mine with the
stock bearing and it just keeps on running like new.  I have had a once in a
while stutter when it went vertical, but got so much power it just keeps
going anyway.  I run OMEGA 15% and OS type F plug, Perry pump.  I flew 6
rounds today, set the ATV to 80%, way too much power on cool days:-) Thanks
to Jon and Bob for all their tips, oh and Art too. Noe that I've said this
it'll probably croak the next time I fly.
